I can confirm we use the secure execution environment of the HSM, we say VMs in a general sense because of the limited knowledge of HSMs, makes it easier for people to understand. But it is actually compiled C code running in the tamper proof / tamper resistant part of the module doing the share issuance and the multiparty computation protocols.

Awesome. Thales/nCipher or SafeNet or something else? I'll assume that since you're in the UK and doing HSM stuff it's ex-nCipher people from Cambridge...
Overall this is quite an impressive application, especially on the backend/server side. I wish more people used HSMs in a productive way (I've done some stuff with them in the past, and am working on related things now)
